I had my 5th sessions of lhr done on Saturday.Been 7 weeks since my last session.It hurt a bit more this time but I'm sure it was due to she had to turn up laser setting from what I understand.Sunday I noticed red blister type almost burned places on my vagina.Due to the weather I can't go see her but I was wondering if anyone else had these issues.I went to see my gyn and she had no idea.She did testing for other things, on my side I highly doubt any other thing could be causing it.help please?

Answer: Laser Hair Removal -- Takes a series of treatments -- BLISTERS/BURNS WHAT TO DO?
Silvadene cream or Bactroban Cream and cortisone cream are all used after a burn from a laser. It depends both on your skin type and type of burn. Choosing the right laser hair device based on your skin type is so important. Best, Dr. Green
Sounds like you have hidradenitis in your armpit. Our office uses a combination of laser therapy, medical therapy, and surgical treatments. Use Melapads daily to prevent more folliculitis. Keloids may form in the areas. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian#Realself100 Surgeon
Thank you for your question. Without examining you in person or seeing a photo it is difficult to determine which laser will be appropriate for your skin type. However, the Nd:YAG laser is best for darker skin types and the Alexandrite is best used on light skin. For laser hair removal treatment...
